日内瓦，10月9日——联合国人权事务高级专员表示，纳维·皮莱获得诺贝尔奖是人权事业的集体胜利，也是所有寻求正义与问责（包括通过国际刑事法院寻求正义）的人们的胜利。
GENEVA, Oct 9 - The UN human rights chief said on Friday that Navi Pillay's Nobel Prize was a collective win for human rights and for all those seeking justice and accountability, including through the International Criminal Court.
曾于2008年至2014年间在皮莱担任联合国人权事务高级专员期间与其密切合作的沃尔克·蒂尔克称她为“国际法的化身”。
Volker Turk, who worked closely with Navi Pillay during her tenure as UN High Commissioner for Human Rights from 2008 to 2014, described her as "the embodiment of international law".
在回应关于皮莱曾任国际刑事法院法官的问题时，蒂尔克表示，诺贝尔奖委员会将奖项授予皮莱，不仅是人权的胜利，也是全球寻求正义与问责者的胜利。
“The fact that the Nobel Award Commission decided to give this to Navi Pillay is a collective win for human rights, but also for (those) seeking justice and accountability in this world," Turk said in response to a question about Pillay's former role as an ICC judge.
他强调，国际刑事问责机制（包括国际刑事法院）至关重要，这是当今世界发出的强烈信号。
"And it's clear that we need international criminal accountability mechanisms, including the International Criminal Court, and it's clear that we have a very strong signal that this is absolutely critical in today's world."
皮莱曾担任联合国巴勒斯坦被占领土调查委员会主席直至去年，她曾认定以色列在加沙犯下了种族灭绝罪，以色列对此予以驳斥。
Pillay, who was chair of a UN Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory until last year, found that Israel had committed genocide in Gaza — a claim that Israel has dismissed as scandalous.
蒂尔克表示，这不仅是对她在巴勒斯坦问题上所做工作的认可，更是对她在全球其他众多冲突和局势中所做贡献的肯定。
“It is a recognition not only of what she did in relation to Palestine, but frankly what she did in relation to so many other conflicts and situations around the world," said Turk.
